Justin Jefferson, the top wide receiver in the NFL, will apparently have to wait another season for his payday.
The Minnesota Vikings are not expected to sign the All-Pro to a contract extension before their season opener on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The two sides are reportedly expected to revisit the contract talks after the upcoming season.
This was the first offseason in which Jefferson was eligible for a contract extension, with fellow 2021 first-round draft picks Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert and Trevon Diggs already seeing major paydays.
